Elbe/Busywild Sunday 8/3

Heading to Elbe on Sunday 8/3 (Note the date has changed from Saturday) with a friend to run Busywild and as many other trails as we have time for. Looking for a couple more vehicles to round out the group.

I understand. I have Sat and Sun off, but I have learned not to wheel Sunday when I have to be up at 3AM Monday for work.

Damn I have always wanted to run this trail. I have been told my liberty would be fine but IDK. :eeek:

srgould41 · Jul 24, 2014

A Jeep Liberty? As long as you are on 36" or larger tires, locked front and rear, and don't care if you bash in every panel and brake some windows

Anthony1 · Jul 24, 2014

Everybody says that trail is super easy and only takes 30 minutes to run it.

srgould41 · Jul 24, 2014

Run it in 30 minutes yes. Driving it is another story.:haha:

Anthony1 · Jul 24, 2014

It's a trail rated model, I should be fine. :awesomework:

srgould41 · Jul 24, 2014

Well, it's your sheetmetal. On my last trip in February I nearly tore off the soft top on my FJ40. I was able to unfasten it and get past that one tree. A full figured rig will take some hits. On the plus side, the trail should be dry now and much easier to navigate. You are welcome to come along if you want to try it out.

Haha this thread is funny:haha:

Don't listen to him anthony, stay on your crane and keep the liberty at home. It is dangerous to head down that trail .

The Busy Wild takes a driver with some experience... Not a good trial to start out on. Or if you haven't wheeled in a really really really really really long time its not a good one to try and reclaim your wheeling status on...:haha:

You know that's a good point.:awesomework:

I haven't been wheeling since the last time I went wheeling. :redneck:

we ran in tuesday in a pontiac sunbird. But I have to admit, it was worse than usual. It took 45 minutes instead of the usual 30.

that must be one hell of a sunbird :redneck:

Anthony1 · Jul 25, 2014

My last time wheeling I showed tons of skill when I caved the right rear corner in and waisted the taillight. :redneck:

Damn tree jumped up and hit me. :haha:

Sunbird on 60's :011:

Poor Jeep Liberty, you should be more careful where you park it. Those darn trees have no respect.

srgould41 · Jul 29, 2014

All kidding aside, sort of, anyone going to join me Saturday or do I have the trail all to myself?

I might just have to bring a chain saw and drop trees across the trail behind me. Give that Sunbird a challenge. :haha:
